And God Makes It Enough

 

...mighty warriors

   of their generations....

         1 Chronicles 7. 2

God calls us to be the same,

bearers of His name

    in the familiar and strange,

prayer warriors,

carriers of grace,

providers of forgiveness

    where it is unknown,

carriers of fruit

   in times of famine,

bringing strong love under siege,

showing mercy to others

    who struggle with despair,

pursuing peace,

willing to do what is right,

ready to do something,

claiming and proclaiming

  God's Presence among us,

and having done all,

  to stand in His strength.

Sometimes that is all

    we can do.

And God makes it enough.

O LORD,

We have no strength and might

       without You.

Grant to us the courage

   to go forth among others

for the sake of Your name

   in this time and place

and for the well-being

   of this generation.

Find us faithful, O God,

no matter where we are,

no matter in what situation

   You have placed us today.
